Exploring Mandalas: Stage 1

11 Mar Exploring Mandalas: Stage 1

A group of us came together in January to draw and paint mandalas; the first meeting of a year long exploration based on the Archetypal Stages of the Great Round of Mandala. We are using The Mandala Workbook by Suzanne Fincher as our source for guidance. The first stage is called Resting in the Darkness, representative of the quiescence of winter where things lie dormant and hibernating, and of the earliest stage of your life in the darkness of your mother’s womb. Here are a couple of images from the day.
